lol you are really being diplomatic that packaging is horrendous. Terrible finish and looks unsafe. angry
Na so Oyibo man come deceive us collect our heritage. Can we get past package for once and look at if it is practical. Ask relevant questions.
Are you offering a guarantee? And seriously where would you find a 130 AH 24 V lithium battery for that price. As you patronize him he will improve on the packaging. If you fixate on the packaging he will go out of business and we will continue to fund the factories of people in China.
Bros what warranty are you offering? What are the limitations that I should expect from your battery relative to a lead acid battery.
Those are reasonable questions. And if you don't want to buy or tell him how to do it better, just observe.

Good morning house, I am being offered considering a 100ah 24v Lithium battery as a replacement for my 24v 200ah Lead acid. I want to know if it will standup to the same service levels.. Thanks
You can discharge your Lithium to 90%. Your lead to 50%. If you followed the 50% formula for lead acid batteries then you are in a good place. 90 ah from Lithium vs 100 ah from your lead acid. The Lithium charges much faster and is more efficient. Lower internal resistance between cells. It is a no Brainer if you get a good quality battery

Schumacher, Brawn and Byrne, hired by Todt, so a team effort as mentioned, and not just one person, same as Merc's wins are not just Hamilton's doing.
So you agreed with my comments. Thank you

Team, car, driver, in that order. Driver being the least of their issues.

Those who lived through Schumacher-Ferrari days might understand the German professionalism he took to the Spaghetti Team that made them a winning team after so long losing. Hamilton also spoke about the "Deutsche Technik" of his German Mercedes Team in his post race speech yesterday.
Schumacher was not the sole reason Ferrari conquered. He was ruthless and very capable when given a good car. You had Brawn, Todt Bryne were the reasons why the they dominated. Brawn bought the old Honda team, exploited the rules books and won a championship in his first year. Jenson Button's only championship.

Who is taking us backward when the world is moving forward? Lokomotiv trains at this age? When China and other advanced countries are on high-tech?

We shouldn't be living 50 years behind time, because it will require enough diesel to power

it. Going for an electric train would've make some sense.
Maybe you need to learn a thing or two about modern trains. They are still called locomotives and have come a long way since the steam powered trains that you know. Nigeria does not have the infrastructure to support fully electric trains. In the US Amtrak uses the same technology that is being deployed by Nigeria to cover some routes. The modern locomotive is really an electric train but the source of power or the generator is a diesel engine. The drive to the wheels is accomplished by electric motors
We are building the ground infrastructure and we as a nation start to electrify adding a fully electric locomotive will be quite easy. T

Thanks for the reminder about this important maintenance, my filters were quite dirty and blocked, the evaporator was fine and with a little blower that was cleaned. Now waiting for the sun to start smiling to test the difference grin
I clean the filters regularly. I took a toothbrush to the evaporator. I noticed some improvements

From my personal experience! My 1.5hp LG Gen cool has been doing very fine since January 2019.
It cools very well even though the room is large. However, constant cleaning of the evaporator unit is required.

Anytime the cooling effect reduces, I open up the front panel of the indoor unit and do a thorough cleaning on the evaporator coils and cooling effect resumes full blast.

Also once in a while I do clean outdoor unit coils too and I've not had any reason to join the majority of people who keep saying inverter AC is not good...

It is also important to note that, installation matters when it comes to air conditioner. If your installer do a bad job and you end up with leakage, then you'll not enjoy your AC until that problem is fix.

Mine has been a very splendid experience... cheesy cheesy cheesy
Thank you for the comment. I clean the filters. How do you clean the evaporator coil. Thanks in advance

Chris is right. That AC only cools on cold nights. I had to give out mine and use a non-inverter AC for peace of mind.
If that is what it takes then I will replace mine.

What is your Daily usage in Watt hours?

Example mine is 4kwh, So I must be able to generate 5-6Kwh daily if I rely only on Solar.
It varies. I can use as much at 8 kwh some days more. But average at least 5 on a fair day

I like the fact that the inverter did not seem to increase its fan speed at that load, though since it's 5kva, the load would be about 30%, nice to have inverter I must say!
The fan speed is not load dependent. It is temperature dependent. It is an incredible inverter.

Okay this is interesting, one man's food is indeed another man's poison. Are you able to check consumption directly off the battery? If yes, what's the DC power consumption with an AC load of e.g 500w and the no load consumption?
The battery communicates with the inverter. So it does tell the inverter. The inverter consumes about 50 watts.

I love the "time of use" feature on the inverter, in my case I use solpiplog to schedule that for my inverter. What kind of cooker are you using that is consuming 1.2kw? Is it the typical ones as I think those consumes more than that?

Superb inverter, made by China.
China is vexing these days.
Producing premium products at non premium price.
The german or american version of this would cost a section of ones liver cool

Wait for the day Niyiomolade would go fully chinese grin grin grin.
My brother they are blowing my mind. I retired my Victron and Schneider products. This inverter and battery are IP65 rated. The inverter has a 120 amp AC charge and a 10 kw surge.

Nice job.

@ 43 sec, you mentioned "the 1 horsepower inverter AC that is barely performing..."

Was that a derogatory or complement for the inverter AC?

Those batteries that are 100% full at around 1pm, what is the capacity?
Yes the AC sucks. Only cools the room on cold nights. During the day it struggles to keep the room at 27. My window non inverter AC does a better job
The batteries are 5 kwh. I have 4.3 kwh in PV. Thank you for watching and commenting
